Your comment amounts to nothing than whataboutism.

There is no misinformation here. Iran has a brutal regime that has been repressing its people for decades. The fact that Israel and other states committed similar war crimes doesn’t make Iran any better.

Sanchez’s hypocritical stance is obvious. It has nothing to do what others do.

Spain’s PM is a hypocritical politician who has no problem to collaborate with dictatorships like China and Iran, while at the same time not only criticizing his allies in the EU but even undermining European security.

Whataboutism? The US, Russia, North Korea, and many others are also committing terrible crimes.

But all this doesn’t heal Sanchez’s double standards regarding Iran while at the same time cooperating with dictatorships like China. This is about Spain and his PM.

The next whataboutism?

Sanchez is just trying to distract from corruption scandals involving close political allies, his wife, and his brother, followed by lost regional election in Spain of late, dozens of dead victims in train crashes, … he just fights for his job, he is a fundamentally immoral and hypocritical personality.

You don’t refer to my comment.

It is hypocritical to oppose one human rights violation like the war in Iran, but then collaborate with a dictatorship like China that is committing crimes against humanity on a large scale.

Then read my comment again. It is hypocritical to oppose one human rights violation like the war in Iran, but then collaborate with a dictatorship like China that is committing crimes against humanity on a large scale.

It is deeply hypocritical. You can’t collaborate with Iran, China, and other dictatorships and then speak of human rights. Sanchez seeks to distract from his own troubles - a series of corruption scandals, the recent train crashes, his Socialist party’s lost regional elections of late.

Sanchez is (rightfully) criticizing the US war on Iran citing human rights and the rule of law here while he has apparently no problem to actively seek cooperation with dictatorships, which often even undermines European security. For example, he has no problem cooperating with China in complete disregard of Beijing’s decades long rights violations and crimes against humanity. It’s deeply hypocritical.

More manufactured consent.

This is usually a standard response of tankies and other left-wing extremists if they don’t have any arguments, often followed by whataboutism (Iraq, Afghanistan, …).

Sanchez is a hypocritical politician who has no problem to collaborate with (and praises!) dictatorships like China and Iran, while at the same time not only criticizing his allies in the EU but even undermining European security.

I don’t support the US war against Iran, but Sanchez’s staged morality here is unbearable and disqualifies him as a democratic leader.

This news comes from an international NGO. Spain’s opposition and former ruling party may be as corrupt as the socialists, but pointing the finger to them now seems odd. The corruption scandals in Sanchez’s private and political environment are well known.

This is de facto a death sentence for the ‘crime’ of telling the truth.

This appears to be a very good technology for Ukraine as far as I understand as a non-military person, but the title is weird in my opinion. But maybe it’s just me.

This @schizoidman is posting exclusively pro-China/pro-Russia and anti-Western content with mostly low-quality content and misleading titles (and sometimes from questionable far left-wing or far right-wing sources, their last post has been deleted here just a few minutes ago if I got that right).

What is this here?

I feel somehow this community (or the instance?) is sponsored by China, and OP is the poster in chief.

Edit for an addition as this is a clickbait headline that doesn’t match the article’s (weak) content. It says:

Chinese manufacturers have built “tariff-proof” routes into Europe by expanding production in third countries such as Morocco, where Chinese battery and EV supply-chain firms have started manufacturing specifically to serve European demand and reduce exposure to Brussels tariffs. That could also weaken the impact of any minimum-price agreements if those rules apply mainly to China-made vehicles.

If you scroll through OP’s post history you’ll recognize a similar pattern.

Maybe we’ll see a future of several global trade blocs with Cold War-like trade restrictions for dual-use goods between these blocs, accompanied by a tit-for-tat trade rather than deeper trade agreements?

Maybe the EU will have some free trade agreements (Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, South Korean,and maybe some countries in Asia, Africa, and Latin America like the Mercosur members), and more tit-for-tat trade with all others?

Not necessarily ‘de-coupling’ but ‘de-risking.’ For Europe this would definitely mean EV, solar panels, cloud infrastructure, and other critical products will be made in Europe?

If this is the way, it will be not easy for Europe, but a disaster for China and the US in the long run as they rely heavily on Europe in their product trade and service industries, respectively.

Just my 2 cents.

I read this but what exactly is USA-centric here? The article is only citing Ukrainian sources if I didn’t miss something, and it only mentions the U.S. briefly (talking about “EU and US controls” of sanctions). And given the EU is not exactly far away from Ukraine it’s highly relevant I would say (even more than for the US imo).

What would you write differently if I may ask?

PM Sanchez is a right-wing politician?

Sanchez has been facing a growing list of corruption scandals and sexual harassment allegations involving his political allies and family members. Just read the news. His stance on Gaza and human rights is a show as he isn’t asking China - which he considers an “ally” - about the country’s human rights abuses, just to name an example. Just read the news. I don’t buy into his moral stance.

Yes, and Sanchez and his party have close ties to China. Sanchez’s government even contracted China’s Huawei with the country’s judicial wiretap system (while at the same time banned Huawei from its public telcom network over security reasons). So the Spanish law enforcement, including those fighting corruption, now depends on China.

And let us not forget the Gate Center, a Spanish-Chinese so-called ‘think tank’ with close ties to the government.

[Edit typo.]

Sanchez is a ‘left winger’ that acts ‘on behalf of general wellbeing’?That’s satire, right?
